Tao Xiushui was also secretly glad that Master Tao and the merchants were fine. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

But after careful inquiry, it was not like that.

I heard that those bandits appeared out of thin air from the sea, and there was no trace.

All of them are well-trained and strong in martial arts, and all the families and servants have suffered mixed casualties to protect the goods.

If the merchants hadn't told them to stop, let them take whatever they wanted, and not hurt their lives, they would have died.

The most pitiful thing is that there are a few small workshops on the ship, I wanted to use the power of the big family, and I also wanted to make some silver taels with it, but I didn't expect to be robbed by this, these small workshops closed down directly, not to mention that they would open their doors again.

Tao Xiushui didn't react to the accident of these big households, but felt a little sorry for those small workshops, so they all lost for no reason, and they couldn't turn over.

For big families like the Tao family and the Xiao family, although they all have some family backgrounds, they are all tens of thousands of silver, and they didn't even hear a sound when they hit the water ticket, so it's fake to say that they don't feel distressed.

Businessmen are very profitable, Tao Xiushui doesn't believe that these people can be counted like this.

So when she heard that these people went to the county government to make trouble and asked the official to help find goods, she was not much surprised.

The official also reported, and the military officer also went to investigate, but he only went once, and then there was no result, and no one could accept it.

What's more, they are all the money and treasury of these parents and officials, and they will pay a lot of filial piety to them during the New Year's holidays, so it stands to reason that it should be natural to help investigate the robbed goods.

But what kind of friendship will the official talk to you, everything is a hammer deal, and the things that are not profitable are all symbolic posturings, and they will really be investigated, unless there is a big man to confess, then they will do it, or this kind of work and money has not involved personal interests, who will have nothing to do and really investigate.

Tao Xiushui used to be in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and he had a thorough understanding of the government and their style of doing things.

All the merchants went to the county government for a few days, and they were persuaded by the county lord and the city lord to go back.

But for a few days, all the merchants went to make trouble, and the county lord and the city lord were not like that.

The merchants couldn't pull their faces on the first day, but after a long time, the government couldn't find out day by day, and this face was not so important.

They were all very anxious, and if they had one more day, they would have one more chance that their goods would not be recovered, so they would all sit around at the gate of the government as soon as they discussed, and they all made up their minds that if these bandits did not catch this person, they would not leave for a day.

After coming and going like this, the merchants annoyed the county lord.

didn't come out to see each other, and even a word of kindness was not said on his face.

In the end, all the merchants took turns to sit in front of the county yamen and not leave.

Tao Xiushui felt inappropriate when he heard this, and he was a bit of a stalemate between the people and the officials.

Since ancient times, how can the people fight over the officials? How can the officials allow the people to suppress them, and if they continue like this, something will definitely happen.

After hearing this, she led Qingzhu away.

When I arrived at the gate of the county office, I saw people who couldn't squeeze in the three layers inside and outside, standing outside the circle, not knowing what to do.

This matter has been going on for three or four days, and it is not a way to go on like this.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way" She was thinking wildly when she saw a few people walking behind her who were escorted by officers and soldiers.

On closer inspection, it is clearly Chu Yi.

This man's face was deep and suspicious, could it be that this happened?

Tao Xiushui really wanted to say a few words to this person to ask about the situation, but there were many people at this time, and she was not a good girl.

Chu Yi walked to the front, let all the merchants to the county office, and asked the officers and soldiers to drive the people outside.

"Miss, let's go! Look at the official who is driving people there!" Qingzhu saw that the officers and soldiers were shouting and beating everyone, pulling the sleeves of the young lady's clothes and being afraid.

"Okay" Tao Xiushui also saw it, and led Qingzhu to retreat to the back.

She couldn't leave yet, and wanted to ask Chu Yi.

It didn't take long for Chu Yizhen to come out of it.

But before Tao Xiushui could get closer, the man got into the carriage and left.

Just because Ah San said in his ear just now: "The eldest prince is here"

"Where have you go?" Chu Yi got into the car and asked his subordinates

"Just arrived at the city gate," Ah San replied.

"Back to the City Lord's Mansion"

"Yes"

As soon as a few people entered the city lord's mansion, they heard a report from the next person that the eldest prince of Chu was coming.

Chu Yi pretended to have nothing to do and went out to greet him.

As soon as I arrived at the gate, I saw a tall man come in from outside the door, the two of them had similar eyebrows and eyes, both like Chu Guogong and Chu Lao General.

Below the nose, the two are not like each other at all.

Because the eldest prince was born to the Duchess of Chu, and Chu Yi was born to a concubine.

Chu Feng was dressed in armor, and when he saw Chu Yi turn over and dismount, he said with a smile:

"Second brother, I can see you, you haven't been back to the barracks for so long, and you still think something happened to you!"

Chu Yi's face was flat, "It's okay, I want to spend more time outside"

"Haha, is there something that ties the second brother's heart?"

"The second brother thinks too much"

"It's okay, the second brother is from here, and he understands everything"

The two of them talked and laughed and entered the city lord's mansion, but before they entered the main house, they saw the city lord rushing in from the outside all the way.

"Li didn't go out to greet him, I'm really sorry for the eldest son"

Chu Feng laughed and said, "It's okay, I know that the city lord is busy."

"Come in, please come in, I hope the son doesn't blame Li for not being considerate of this generation"

"Hahaha, the city lord said it was funny"

A few people talked into the main house.

The city lord said: "The ...... Gongzi of Chu came this time"

Chu Feng smiled:

"The city lord doesn't need to be nervous, I'm coming out to find my second brother, I haven't seen you for a few days, and our brothers are thinking about it."

Chu Yi's face was flat and expressionless.

Hearing this, the city lord smiled and said, "I really envy your brotherly affection."

"Hahaha, that's, that's" Chu Feng loved to laugh, and laughed a few times before he finished a few words.

Chu Yi didn't know if he was not used to hearing it or what, he stood up and said, "You talk to the city lord first, and I'll wait for you at the residence."

"General Chu, please" The city lord stood up and was stopped by Chu Feng, "City lord, don't be polite, don't be weird, my second brother is like this"

"It's okay, it's okay, General Chu has a good temperament"

Chu Feng suddenly remembered something, and whispered to the city lord:

"By the way, there is one thing I owe the city lord to thank."

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, it's all what Master Li should do"

"My second brother has not been close to women for many years, and he still has this temperament, and his father has always been very anxious, I heard that the city lord gave my second brother a woman a few days ago."

"Oh, Gongzi Chu said that! Actually, this matter is not a gift, I asked for the consent of General Chu, so I specially found it."

Chu Feng's eyes lit up, "Really, could it be that my second brother has opened his mind?"

"Young people, that can be like that for the rest of your life, Master Chu rest assured, there is a suitable young lady, your eldest brother asked your father to find a kiss for your second brother"

"If this happens, I will thank the city lord"

"Childe is polite, polite"

The two of them were silent for a word.

Chu Yicai waited for a pillar of incense in the house before he heard Ah San say: "Young master, that one is here"

After the voice, I saw Chu Feng coming in from outside the door with a smile.
